NANTOSUELTA.
Old Celtic Nanto-svelta, meaning "fruitful
vale." The name of a goddess. (Aryan Word-building,
Holbrooke, 1910)
Outside the
Mithraeum, at 30 m. distance, there were found, among other objects, two
important altars. One has in relief, on the front, two divinities,
named in the inscription Sucellus and Nantosuelta. The god,
clothed in tunic, mantle, and boots, carries a hammer-headed staff, and
the goddess, who is winged, a staff with temple-shaped head. She
appears alone on the other altar, without wings, but carrying in one
hand the same temple-topped sceptre, and in the other an object like a
hut with a raven perched on the top. Both altars bear traces of
painting. (American Journal of Archaeology, v.1, 1897)
